Triangle over Leicestershire (UK/England) · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was mowing my grass when my wife noticed three black triangle craft in the sky. There was a purple hue coming from the rear of the craft and a rotten egg smell in the air. there was a buzzing noise and when my son came out his ears popped. they just hovered and then shot off. my dog was shaking in nervous temprement during sighting. We wonder whether this is a serious-minded report. PD
